Soprano Marigona Qerkezi makes both her house and role debut in the title role of Puccini’s Tosca at the Copenhagen Opera House, marking a significant milestone in the Kosovan soprano’s career.
Qerkezi, acclaimed for her "richness in harmonics" and her "solid and ringing high notes", now takes on one of Puccini’s most iconic heroines — a role that demands both vocal brilliance and searing theatrical presence. Her Tosca promises to combine lyric warmth with fearless dramatic conviction, adding a cornerstone of the Italian repertoire to her growing list of roles.
The production is conducted by Lukas Beikircher and directed by Kasper Holten, with a distinguished cast including John Reuter as Scarpia, Carlos Cardoso as Cavaradossi, and Kyungil Ko as Angelotti.
With its fusion of passion, politics, and tragedy, Tosca remains one of opera’s most electrifying works, and Qerkezi’s debut at the Copenhagen Opera House marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter in her artistic journey.
